Losses in the forestry sector from Trump tarriffs are lower than losses in the PSE sector from Marc Miller acting like a bull in a China shop. But which industry do the Liberals deem worthy of federal government support? Why the one that is closest to the 19th century, of course!

Lake Winnipeg is in danger and action can't wait.

Ahead of Canada’s April 28 election, tell your candidates:
- Use evidence for real impact
- Support Indigenous water stewardship

Water protection isn’t optional, it’s essential.

Time to treat this like the crisis it is. We act fast in emergencies. We don’t wait for things to get worse. The Green Party has the plan, help us make it happen. #HousingEmergency #ActNow #VoteForIt
The image depicts tents inside a city, overlaid with a black gradient. A red bar enters from the right side of the image, containing a header that reads “Housing is a crisis.” in bold text. It continues, in smaller text: “So why aren’t we acting like it?” Lower down, a green bar enters from the left side with text that reads “A crisis this big demands a real plan.” which continues in larger text: “The Green Party has one.” In between the bars, body text reads: “When a house catches flame, we send firefighters. When floods impact communities, we rebuild. So why, when millions can’t afford a place to live, are we doing so little?” A background image of an older house for sale is overlaid by a half-circle at the bottom of the image. A small red bar reads “Step one:” Inside the half-circle, a header reads “Stop the bleeding” which continues in smaller text: “Corporate investors are treating homes like stocks. We’ll crack down on corporate greed, stop housing speculation, and put people first.” A background image of a high-rise construction zone is overlaid by a half-circle at the bottom of the image. A small red bar reads “Step two:” Inside the half-circle, a header reads “Public housing investment” which continues in smaller text: “When disaster strikes, we don’t wait years to act. We mobilize. We rebuild. That’s what we need now, a nationwide public housing initiative on a scale we haven’t seen since the 1970s.” A background image of an apartment building is overlaid by a half-circle at the bottom of the image. A small red bar reads “Step three:” Inside the half-circle, a header reads “Make housing truly affordable” which continues in smaller text: “Current policies define ‘affordable’ as 80% of market rent. But if the market is broken, so is that definition. We’ll ensure no one pays more than 30% of their income on housing, because that’s what affordability actually means.”

Canada and the Northwest Territories signed a historic Nature Agreement to protect biodiversity and conserve up to 9.6% of land by 2035. 🌱🎉 With $20M in funding, this 10-year, Indigenous-led initiative is key to safeguarding nature and cultural traditions. 💚

Maybe tariffs and trade barriers aren’t such bad things. Our ever more efficient economy has led to accelerated ecological degradation. Slower and more local economies put less pressure on the environment. In the long term, a healthy environment is better for our economy and well being.
